RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS MANUAL LESSON 15 (14 DECEMBER 2025)

TOPIC: THE EAR GATE

OPENING PRAYER:
Father, filter my ears in Jesus’ name.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE:
The teacher should review the lesson for the previous week.

BIBLE READING

BIBLE PASSAGE: Matthew 13:13-17

13 Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
14 And in them is fulfilled the prophecy of Esaias, which saith, By hearing ye shall hear, and shall not understand; and seeing ye shall see, and shall not perceive:
15 For this people’s heart is waxed gross, and their ears are dull of hearing, and their eyes they have closed; lest at any time they should see with their eyes and hear with their ears, and should understand with their heart, and should be converted, and I should heal them.

16 But blessed are your eyes, for they see: and your ears, for they hear.
17 For verily I say unto you, That many prophets and righteous men have desired to see those things which ye see, and have not seen them; and to hear those things which ye hear, and have not heard them.

MEMORY VERSE:

“And thine ears shall hear a word behind thee, saying, This is the way, walk ye in it, when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left.” Isaiah 30:21.

INTRODUCTION

The ear is a sensory/sensitive organ of the human body with two main functions: hearing and balance. It is mainly concerned with detecting, transmitting and transducing sound while the semi-circular canals and vestibule of the inner ear work together to keep the body balanced. The ear is one of the means we receive information from the world around us.

A gate is any means of access. The ear gate is thus a censor to be used to select what we allow into our soul and what we do with the information received; to run with or discard it.

TEACHER’S DIARY

LESSON AIM:

To study self-control through information censor.

TEACHING OBJECTIVES:

Through this lesson students should be able to:

1. Define the term “ear-gate.”
2. Mention the characteristics of “dull ears.”
3. State the traits of “obedient ears.”

TEACHING PLAN:

1. To achieve the above-stated objectives, the teacher should:

1. Allow the students to recite the memory verse, read the Bible passage, contribute to the discussion, and do class activities and assignments.
2. Allow the Assistant Teacher to see to the wellbeing of the class, and mark attendance and assignment.
3. Teach the lesson outline, summarise, conclude, evaluate the lesson and give assignments.

TEXT REVIEW: Matthew 13:13-17

In the Scriptures above, Jesus justified his reasons for speaking in parables to the people. It is basically because the people had dull eyes and ears.

A. Read verses 13-15 and list out the characteristics of dull eyes and ears.
i. …
ii …
iii. …..
iv….
v….
vi. …

B. Those whose eyes and ears are not dull are blessed because many people love to see and hear but they cannot. It takes spiritual alignment to know, see and appreciate spiritual things.

TEACHING METHOD:

The Lecture Method.

TIME MANAGEMENT:

The teacher should apply the two-lesson outline teaching time.

LESSON OUTLINE 1: “DULL EARS”

A. Hebrews 5:11 discloses that some people have dull ears. These people lack interest in yielding to divine instructions and have difficulty in running with God’s command because their heart is not cultivated (Matthew 13:15). They exhibit a lack of understanding about the things of Christ and are not excited to take heed to the voice of the living God (Matthew 19:16-22).

B. Other traits displayed by people who are dull of hearing include:

1. Rebellion: They willingly revolt against divine instructions (Ezekiel 12:2).
2. Refusal to Hearken: They do not listen attentively so they find it difficult to comprehend and follow directions (Zechariah 7:8-11).
3. Immaturity: They are undeveloped and cannot handle hard and sound teachings (Hebrews 5:11-12).
4. They prefer to listen to fables instead of the truth of God’s word (2 Timothy 4:4).
5. They love to hear teachers who will tell them what they want (2 Timothy 4:3).
6. Their ears are not “circumcised”- not refined – so they hear slowly (Acts 7:51; Acts 28:27).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:

How can we help people who have “dull ears?”

LESSON OUTLINE 2: “OBEDIENT EARS”

The teacher should explain ‘obedient ears’ as follows:

A. A major trait of people with obedient ears is that:

i. They completely obey the undiluted word of God without holding anything back (Exodus 24:Z).
ii. They believe in divine doings (Psalm 44:1).
iii. They take to corrections (Proverbs 25:12)
iv. Their obedience helps them to eat the good of the land as stated in saiah 1:19.
v. They hold tenaciously to the truth of God’s word and run away from the lusts in the world (Joshua 24:24-25; 1 Peter 1:14).
vi. They are not hypocrites (Ephesians 6:5-6).
vii. They take delight in doing the will of God (Psalm 40:8).
viii. They are quick to hear (James 1:19).
ix. They cleave to God (Deuteronomy 13:4).
x. They are His people (Psalm 100:3).

B. We should note that:

i. It is a blessing to obey God’s commandments (Deuteronomy 11:26-27).
ii. Jesus also comes into the lives of those who hear His voice (John 10:27).
iii. Jesus gives the Holy Ghost to those who obey Him (Acts 5:32).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2:

Do you think you have “obedient ears?” Tell the class your reasons.

CONCLUSION: RCCG Sunday School Teachers Manual 14 December 2025

Although the reception of information is voluntary and within our power to choose, we must intentionally give heed to godly instructions to prosper and record success in life.

EVALUATION:
What are the characteristics of a “dull ear”?

CLOSING PRAYER:
Father, anoint my ears and help me to obey You in all things in Jesus’ name.

ASSIGNMENT: RCCG Sunday School Teachers Manual Lesson 15

RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS MANUAL LESSON 14 (7 DECEMBER 2025)

TOPIC: THE EYE GATE

OPENING PRAYER:
Father, please purify my eyes in Jesus’ name.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE:
Teachers should welcome students to the second quarter of Sunday school for the year 2025/2026.

BIBLE READING

BIBLE PASSAGE: Luke 11:33-36

33 No man, when he hath lighted a candle, putteth it in a secret place, neither under a bushel, but on a candlestick, that they which come in may see the light.
34 The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.
35 Take heed therefore that the light which is in thee be not darkness.
36 If thy whole body therefore be full of light, having no part dark, the whole shall be full of light, as when the bright shining of a candle doth give thee light.

MEMORY VERSE:

“The light of the body is the eye: therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body also is full of darkness.” Luke 11:34.

INTRODUCTION

The eye gate, which is also referred to as the windows of/to the soul, plays a strategic role in the information transmitted to the mind. The eyes dominate emotional communication because what we allow through our eye gate will eventually leach into our mind which is the centre of our thoughts, feelings, and reasoning.

For any believer to stay pure and honour Christ always, the person must consciously guard what is allowed into his/her being through the eye gate (Job 31:1).

TEACHER’S DIARY

LESSON AIM:

To study self-control through information censor.

TEACHING OBJECTIVES:

Through this lesson students should be able to:

1. Define the term “eye-gate.”
2. Mention the works of “unhealthy eyes.”
3. State the constituents of “healthy eyes.”

TEACHING PLAN:

1. To achieve the above-stated objectives, the teacher should:

1. Allow the students to recite the memory verse, read the Bible passage, contribute to the discus-sion, and do class activities and assignments.
2. Allow the Assistant Teacher to see to the wellbeing of the class, and mark attendance and assignment.
3. Teach the lesson outline, summarise, conclude, evaluate the lesson and give assignments.

TEXT REVIEW: Luke 11:33-36

According to Jesus’ teaching in the above Bible passage, there is an ideal and acceptable place for the lamp. When properly positioned, it gives light to everyone. Therefore, He said:

i. The light of the body is … V34a.
ii. Therefore … V34b.
iii. Take heed …V35.
iv. If thy whole body therefore … V36.

TEACHING METHOD:

The Lecture Method.

TIME MANAGEMENT:

The teacher should apply the two-lesson outline teaching time.

LESSON OUTLINE 1: THE WORKS OF “UNHEALTHY EYES”

People with “Unhealthy Eyes” exhibit the following works of the flesh:

i. They are full of lust of the flesh to practice all forms of ungodliness (1 John 2:16).

ii. Due to a lack of, fear of God, these eyes have been exposed to iniquity and immorality (Romans 3:18).

iii. They are full of adultery and cannot cease from sin (2 Peter 2:14).

iv. They are blinded by darkness and filled with hatred (1 John 2:11).

v. They hide from doing good (Proverbs 28:27).

vii. They give their eyes to excessive sleep and are lazy (Proverbs 20:13).

viii. Their eyes are closed to do perverse things (Proverbs 16:30).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:

Have you ever considered yourself as having “unhealthy eyes”? If yes, share the signs you see with the class.

LESSON OUTLINE 2: CONSTITUENTS OF “HEALTHY EYES”

“Healthy eyes” are consciously developed by believers in Christ Jesus, to guard against any form of pollution. Some of the elements of “healthy eyes” include:

1. Self-Control: We must develop the self-will to control what we allow to pass through our eye gate all the time (Galatians 5:22-23). The eyes must be restrained from roaming unnecessarly.
   This must be a personal resolve to only expose the eyes to anything that will benefit it (Job 31:1).
2. Exposure: We must consciously guard our eyes against any exposure to vile things. (Psalm 101:3).
3. Censor: There are some films we must deliberately refuse to watch and there are some books we must not feed our eyes on (1 Thessalonians 5:22).
4. Discipline/Guidance: We guide our eyes when we quickly take them off anything that can pollute our minds. This must be done on purpose to avoid any contamination (Genesis 9:22-25).
5. Conscious: As believers, we must be conscious of where we are and quickly leave any environment or item that can harm us in the long run through our eyes (2 Samuel 11:1-2).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2:

Do you think you have “healthy eyes?” Share your reasons with the class.

CONCLUSION: RCCG Sunday School Teachers Manual 7 December 2025

Believers who desire to honour God and keep their minds clean must scrutinise what they allow through their eye gate which ultimately is the window of the soul.

EVALUATION:
i. What are the characteristics of”unhealthy eyes”?
ii. What can believers do to have “healthy eyes”?

CLOSING PRAYER:
Father, give me the grace to follow You till the end in Jesus’ mighty name.

RCCG SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS MANUAL LESSON 12 (23 NOVEMBER 2025)

TOPIC: LAW AND GRACE

OPENING PRAYER:
Father, help me to distinguish between the law and grace.

PREVIOUS KNOWLEDGE:
The teacher should allow the assistant teacher to review the lesson for the previous week.

BIBLE READING

BIBLE PASSAGE: Romans 8:2-4

2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh:
4 That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

MEMORY VERSE:

“For the law was given by Moses, but grace and truth came by Jesus Christ.” John 1:17.

INTRODUCTION

The law, according to Scriptures, refers to the detailed standard God gave to Moses, beginning in Exodus 20 with the Ten Commandments.

The Law was given to separate God’s people – the Israelites – from the evil nations around them and to define sin (Ezra 10:11; Romans 5:13; 7:7.

TEACHER’S DIARY

LESSON AIM:

To teach the church, the law and grace of God

TEACHING OBJECTIVES:

Through this study, students are expected to:

1. Understand the nature of law.
2. Know the place of grace.

TEACHING PLAN:

To achieve the above-stated objectives, the teacher should

1. Allow the students to recite the memory verse read the Bible passage, contribute to the discussion, and do class activities and assignments.
2. Allow the Assistant Teacher to see to the wellbeing of the class, and mark attendance and assignment.
3. Teach the lesson outline, summarise, conclude, evaluate the lesson and give assignments.

TEXT REVIEW: Romans 8:2-4.

A. In the above passage, there are two categories of the law which are:
I…V2.
ii. ….V2.

B. The natural law could not make a perfect man in God but God through His Son condemned …V3.

C. That the… V4.

TEACHING METHOD:

The Lecture Method.

TIME MANAGEMENT:

The teacher should apply the two-lesson outline teaching time.

LESSON OUTLINE 1: THE NATURE OF THE LAW

1. God gave ‘a law and commandments’ written in a tablet of stone to the Israelites as they journeyed through the wilderness to the Promised Land (Exodus 24:12).

2. The law and commandments were expounded (supposedly by Moses) to include God’s statutes, judgements, testimonies, etc. and written in a book called “The Laws of Moses” to hold the Israelites accountable whenever they disobey God’s commandments (1 Kings 2:3; Matthew 19:7-8).

3. Jesus summarised all the laws to be “love God with all your heart” and “love your neighbour as yourself” (Matthew 22:36-40).

4. God’s commandments are not grievous or burdensome (1 John 5:3) but the nature of sin in man made it difficult for him to comply.

5. The Law was not evil: it defines the condition of a person’s heart (Romans 7:7).

6. The Law exposes the inability of man to obey God’s commandments (Romans 7:14-16).

7. While the Law itself was good, holy and just (Romans 7:12), it was weak in that it lacked the power to change a sinful heart (Romans 8:3; Acts 13:39).

8. We should be careful not to set aside the commandment of God, replacing it with human traditions. (Mark 7:7-9).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:

Do you think you can keep all the Ten Commandments without defaulting?

LESSON OUTLINE 2: THE PLACE OF GRACE

A. God is full of grace (Joel 2:13):

i. People have always found grace and salvation by faith in God (Genesis 19:18-19).

ii. God did not change between the Old and New Testaments (Malachi 3:6a).

iii. The same God who gave the law through Moses also gave grace through Jesus (John 1:17).

iv. Jesus was born “under the law” (Galatians 4:4-5) and became the final sacrifice to bring the Law tofulfilmentand establish the New Covenant (Matthew 5:17; Luke 22:20).

B. If properly understood, there is no conflict between grace and the Law:

i. Christ fulfilled the Law on our behalf and offers grace through the power of the Holy Spirit, who motivates a regenerated heart to live in obedience to God (Romans 8:1-4).

ii. In place of the Old Testament law and its pen-alty, Christians are under the law of grace through Christ (Romans 6:14; Galatians 3:10-14, 22-28).

C. In this dispensation of grace, God’s commandments remain sacred and to be obedient is to love God (1 John 5:3):

i. Any attempt to obey the commandment through the Old Testament Law will take away the liberty of the believer (Romans 8:1-3). This is because “whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one point, is guilty of all” (James 2:9-12).

ii. By grace, we can do what is pleasing and acceptable to God (Ephesians 2:7-10). This is why it is an aberration for anyone who is genuinely born-again to habitually and deliberately practice sin (1 John 3:8-9 AMP).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2:

Is there any conflict between grace and the law?

CONCLUSION: RCCG Sunday School Teachers Manual 23 November 2025

In Christ, we have the grace… resist sin and live holy.

EVALUATION:
Mention two things believers stand to benefit in the place of grace.

CLOSING PRAYER:
Father, give me the grace to follow You till the end in Jesus’ mighty name.

ASSIGNMENT: RCCG Sunday School Teachers Manual Lesson 12

BIBLE READING

BIBLE PASSAGE: Acts 9:36-40

36 Now there was at Joppa a certain disciple named Tabitha, which by interpretation is called Dorcas: this woman was full of good works and almsdeeds which she did.
37 And it came to pass in those days, that she was sick, and died: whom when they had washed, they laid her in an upper chamber.
38 And forasmuch as Lydda was nigh to Joppa, and the disciples had heard that Peter was there, they sent unto him two men, desiring him that he would not delay to come to them.
39 Then Peter arose and went with them. When he was come, they brought him into the upper chamber: and all the widows stood by him weeping, and shewing the coats and garments which Dorcas made, while she was with them.
40 But Peter put them all forth, and kneeled down, and prayed; and turning him to the body said, Tabitha, arise. And she opened her eyes: and when she saw Peter, she sat up.

MEMORY VERSE:

“And whatsoever ye do, do it heartily, as to the Lord, and not unto men” Colossians 3:23.

INTRODUCTION

Workplace Ministry, also known as Marketplace Ministry, refers to living out a ministry-focused life through everyday work. As followers of Christ, many of us spend more time in the workplace; whether in business, government, education, healthcare, etc.

God’s desire for us is to actively influence and uplift the world around us, serving as His light and ministering right where we are, in the course of our daily routines.

Workplace ministry is about shifting your perspective by viewing your work, in whatever role, as a service to the Lord (Colossians 3:23).

LESSON OUTLINE1: A MISSION FIELD

A. God’s presence is with us in every aspect of life, including the workplace (Psalm 139:7-10). This assurance encourages us to rely on His guidance as we face challenges and seize opportunities at our workplace. Hence,

1. Our jobs are more than a means of income; they are opportunities to worship and serve God (Ephesians 6:5-8).
2. When we view work as worship, even ordinary tasks take on eternal significance, reflecting God’s character through excellence and integrity (Daniel 11:32b).

B. Believers are called to make disciples in all areas of life, including their workplaces (Matthew 28:18-20).

1. As Christ’s ambassadors, we bring His love, truth, and hope to colleagues and clients (Corinthians 5:20).
2. Workplace ministry is about living out the gospel with authenticity and intentionality, letting our faith shine through our actions and relationships.

C. Aligning our work with biblical values requires wisdom (Proverbs 3:13).

1. 1. Integrating faith and work reflects the interconnectedness of our spiritual lives and professional roles in Christ.
2. Workplace ministry can transform lives and communities by addressing spiritual, emotional and practical needs.
3. Jesus calls us to influence others with wisdom, compassion, and hope (Matthew 5:13-16).
4. This was modelled by the early church, which shared resources, served others, and drew people to Christ through love and unity (Acts 2:42-47).

CLASS ACTIVITY 1:

How do you affect others positively in your workplace?

LESSON OUTLINE 2: THE PRINCIPLES

To minister effectively in the workplace, believers must embody their faith through intentional actions and Christ-like attitudes. Here are some key principles:

1. Alignment: Setting goals that align with God’s priorities ensures our work reflects His purposes (Proverbs 16:3). This begins when we surrender to God’s will, allow Him to shape our vision and guide our pursuits toward eternal impact.
2. Intentionality: Sharing the gospel requires purposeful actions, whether through conversations or living out Christ-like virtues (1 Peter 3:15). Intentionality helps us reflect God’s love naturally in everyday interactions.
3. Connection: Building meaningful workplace relationships creates opportunities for positive influence (Proverbs 27:9-10). By fostering trust, offering support, and celebrating others, we open doors to share authentic faith.
4. Integrity: Upholding honesty, fairness, and transparency in all dealings reflects Christ’s character and builds credibility (Proverbs 10:9; 28:18). Integrity allows our faith to shine in the workplace.
5. Guidance: Seeking God’s wisdom through prayer, His word, and wise counsel ensures our decisions and ministry remain effective and agree with His will (Psalm 119:105; Proverbs 11:14).

CLASS ACTIVITY 2:

What are you willing to do differently to win more souls for Christ through your workplace?

CONCLUSION: RCCG Sunday School Teachers Manual 16 November 2025

Believers should approach the workplace with a sense of mission and use their, unique gifts to glorify God and influence the Workplace for His kingdom.

EVALUATION:
Mention three principles of effective ministry in workplaces.

CLOSING PRAYER:
Father, please give me the wisdom to win souls for You through my workplace.

ASSIGNMENT: RCCG Sunday School Teachers Manual Lesson 11
